The wine region of Sonoma County

Accessible, quality Californian mosaic north of San Francisco: signature Pinot Noir as king red on the cool side (Russian River, Sonoma Coast) — fine and silky with notes of cherry, raspberry, undergrowth and a spicy touch. Ample Chardonnay (apple, vanilla). Dense Cabernet Sauvignon in Alexander Valley (blackcurrant, cedar), spicy Zinfandel in Dry Creek (blackberry, pepper). 19 distinct AVAs, >60 grapes, foggy coast vs warm valleys.


The wine region of California

Powerful, sunny reds: dense Napa Cabernet Sauvignon (blackcurrant, chocolate, tobacco, ample tannins), spicy, jammy Zinfandel from the Sierra Foothills, silky red-fruited Pinot Noir on the cool coast (Sonoma, Russian River, Central Coast). Opulent, buttery Chardonnay, notes of yellow fruit and vanilla. Varied climate, from the hot interior to the Pacific-cooled coast. 80% of US production, 139 AVAs including Napa (1st AVA, 1981).

The word of the wine: Tartar (deposit)

White, chalky deposits that occur as a result of precipitation inside bottles and are often considered by consumers as a defect. They are in fact tartaric salts formed by tartaric acid, potassium and calcium naturally present in the wine. This deposit does not alter the quality of the wine and can be eliminated by a simple decanting.
